- Stencilling with a brush is great for small designs, for introducing more than one colour, and for shading.
- Hold the stencil brush at right angles to the surface and apply a small amount of paint with a dabbing motion. Don’t overload the brush or the paint will seep beneath the stencil and spoil the design.
- Keen to do more? Find stencils from £5.95, brushes from £2.75, and stencil paints from £3.50, at The Stencil Library.
